The Oriental Land Co. today announced a new ride-style attraction opening at Tokyo Disneyland in 2009.

The ride is based on Monsters, Inc., a movie from Pixar Animation Studios. Last week, the Walt Disney Co. announced an agreement to purchase Pixar for $7.4 billion in an all-stock deal aiming to re-establish a tradition of creative and technological innovation that began with founder Walt Disney 80 years ago.
